Real Madrid are set to take this transfer period as a chance to buy a striker. Los Blancos only have Benzema in that position as Higuain has been sidelined for up to 4 months.
Jorge Valdano spoke to the media following Real Madrid’s vital 3-1 victory over Atletico on Thursday night. The Real Madrid general director revealed:
“We are exploring the market because the uncertainty concerning Higuain’s unavailability has been resolved. We want to see if we can get a player for 6 months who can help us.
“There are many names out there which have been mentioned, but I don’t want to go into any detail. However, it’s true that we’re looking for a number 9.”
Transfer rumours have linked Manchester City’s Emmanuel Adebayor with a switch to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
Meanwhile, Miroslav Klose is also said to be on Real Madrid’s radar; but talking to German magazine Bild Klose's agent Alexander Schuett gave more info about this transfer report as he stated:
“Real Madrid have approached me, but the interest is not too serious at the moment.”
David Trezeguet and Nelson Valdez, both from Hercules, could also be an option for Real Madrid according to transfer news from Spain. Should Valdez become a Blanco, it would be interesting to see how the Paraguayan striker will cope with Iker Casillas as there is resentment between the two professionals.
In the meantime, Jose Mourinho will need to guide his team with Karim Benzema as the sole striker expected to make the roster for Sunday’s match against Almeria in La Liga. Real Madrid remain 2 points behind league leaders Barcelona since losing El Clasico back in November last year.
